Horses, shaking hands and bad edits: The dos and don'ts of the political photo-ops

Sep 6,2023 8:51 pm

It is fair to say that the posing for photos, comes with The Territory of being in the world leader.

The political photo-op is now something of a cliché, But a set of images, the attention of the Social Media earlier This Week .

pictures of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on a horse memes and parodies brought. But you came to us a thought - what makes for a good photo-op?

So, we have dug into the archives and put together this short guide. Aspiring politicians: be careful.

Do: Think carefully about the setting of the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un The Image of understated fashion

What is going on here?

a legitimate question. This is Kim Jong-un on a White Horse through the snowy forests of the country's highest mountain.

A series of striking - and, frankly, poetic images of Mr Kim on a cool-looking Mount Paektu were published by state media earlier This Week .

What can we learn from this?

That is the definition of a photo-op is really important.

North Korea insists that Mt Paektu was the birthplace of Mr. Kim's father and predecessor. In this sense, analysts of these pictures to be regarded as not-so-subtle reminder of Mr Kim's authority and power.

"These pictures are solely for domestic consumption," says long-time North Korea watcher Professor Hazel Smith . "To imitate the images of his grandfather, the thought on a White Horse , and to contribute to the legitimacy and the authority of his rule. "

Mt Paektu holds symbolic meaning in North Korean culture

But , experts say, they are basically designed to emphasise Mr Kim superiority.

"you give people The Image that [he] is very different," says North Korea expert Dr. Sojin Lim. "He is not an ordinary man More like a God. "

Don't: Forget about Body Language

What the hell is going on here?

This is the former British Prime Minister Theresa May sharing a frosty handshake with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the beginning of this year. Uncomfortable.

What can we learn from this?

The Body Language , especially facial expressions, are the key to a good photo-op.

And don't assume that the visible is voltage here, some kind of error. This can send a clear message, too.

at This meeting, The First between the two conductors, since the poisoning of former Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia is in the UK. Britain accused Russia, which denied any role in The Attack .

So, the tensions were high. It is fair to say that this picture made it very clear that.

to Do: Show your interests

What the hell is going on here?

Russian President Vladimir Putin is enjoying some shirtless downtime in Siberia.

Mr Putin has regularly something like a photo-op legend, with images of him hunting, fishing and the exercise of the pop-up fairly.

What can we learn from this?

The photo-ops are all about projecting an Image . And Mr Putin has a carefully managed.

"you are an essential part of how he immortalized his political Image ," says Professor Dr. Kataryna Wolczuk, an expert in Russian politics. But why he is pictured so often to do outdoor activities?

"It's about manhood," Prof Wolczuk explained. "Russian men are expected to be strong, close to nature, and engaged in all sorts of daring activities. Putin is using to project these images of himself as Action Man . "

"There is a cultural tradition here, that the power of the physically strong people," she adds.

But there are not all weapons and rings. "Putin and other politicians, But also to show you have a softer side. He tries to appear well-rounded," Prof Wolczuk says.

Thus, the picture of him with the fluffy dogs.

Don't: fear of ridicule

What the hell is going on here?

The current British Prime Minister Boris Johnson stuck helpless on a zip-wire.

It happened in 2012, when he was still London mayor. It looks less awkward today.

What can we learn from this?

That is an obvious photo-op disaster can actually work (relatively) well.

Almost immediately, After Mr. Johnson was in the picture dangling from The Wire , is spread an array of memes and jokes about him online. Take this one:

For most politicians, this would lead to disaster. But , as a witness told The Guardian , earlier this year, "he seemed to be the gambler and run with it".

Seven years later, he finds himself in Downing Street. Maybe More aspiring Prime Minister should be a funny zip-wire trip.

Do: Get shown regularly

What the hell is going on here?

The stylish man Turkmenistan's President Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov is.

He is known for his beefcake Image (in spite of the puppy) and his ostentatious PR stunts. He also wrote a rap song drink on horses and a book about tea. Don't Ask.

What can we learn from him?

it is important to have photo-ops, at least occasionally, if you are a country leader.

Why? Well, because otherwise people might assume you died.

After he had not been seen in public for weeks.

state television footage of The President riding a horse, driving a rally car and a shooting range on holiday in an attempt to dispel the rumors. But there was no evidence that it was the last.

It was not until he resort city was shown at an event in the Caspian Sea , the rumors of his death were put to bed. Lesson learned.

don't get caught editing

What the hell is going on here?

The grainy Image (it is from a newspaper) shows Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak , leading former US President Barack Obama and Other World leaders along a Red Carpet in 2010.

It was in the White house, shortly After the Middle East peace negotiations were resumed. Simple enough, right?

What can we learn from this?

not That, if it seem to the photo-ops, are things always like.

Here is the original Image - Spot the difference:

As you can see in The Image , Mr Obama, the way and Mr Mubarak trails behind.

To be fair, Mr Mubarak was the Egyptian governmental newspaper rather than his office, that changed the picture. But , nevertheless, proved to be embarrassing.

to Do: Look at the look

What the hell is going on here?

The historic picture was taken on US President Donald Trump 's first day in The Oval Office. (It was the 23. January 2017, for the record).

It shows him signing an abortion-related order. He is surrounded by top White House figures including Vice-President Mike Pence , the one on The Left .

What can we learn from this?

That the people in the background no matter.

This is a pretty standard photo-op earned a significant backlash. Column inches, Twitter threads, and TV broadcasting time were all for the response.

Why was the reaction so violent? Because, as the critics of The Order were quick to point out, there are no women in the picture.

"All of these people seem well-suited to determine WOMEN'S health care. Not," a Twitter user said at the time. "Notice anyone missing?" another asked.

But one person's questionable photo-op, a other can the opportunity. So, right on cue, in Sweden's deputy Prime Minister responded with what was, many felt, a mocking Parody .

" Touché."
